Chapter 20 Does Adding Water Accelerate the Melting of Ice?

Mizukawa took a piece of ice and put it in an empty bowl and said, "We all know that when the ice partially melts, water appears. If you don't pour the water away, won't the ice melt more quickly?

Duenias glanced at the ice and said, "No." Instead, it slows down the melting of the ice. Why? Very simple. Ice melts and needs to absorb heat. The water is around the ice, so it will definitely absorb the heat of the water. The water is sucked away of heat, and the temperature drops. As the temperature of the water continues to drop, the water turns into ice. And the original ice turned into water. Ice and water are constantly in a cycle of transformation until their equilibrium is broken.

Although it is only a simple process of changing the physical state, it hides many unknown details. We know that water becomes smaller in size when it becomes ice. Earlier, I saw Mizukawa put a bowl of water in the refrigerator, but there was only about half a bowl of ice. I thought it was strange at the time, and I suspected that he was working magic. It wasn't until now that it dawned on me. This is said that you may not understand yin, and you may not understand it. Behind the seemingly ordinary things in the world are often a lot of natural wisdom.

If there are many lumps of ice, then the action of the water is very cloudy. The reason for this is that the ice and water have a larger contact area, and the more heat the ice can absorb from the water.

Liuzi Feng came and said: No. I've done experiments. It has been proven that yin water greatly accelerates the melting rate of ice. After freezing the water in the refrigerator for more than ten hours into ice and placing it in the room, the ice separates from the bowl in less than ten minutes. Instead of pouring out the melted water, I let it remain in the bowl. As a result, the ice melted in less than two hours. really responded to that sentence: one minute on stage, ten years off stage. If there is no prolonged freezing effect, water can easily melt the ice.

With this experiment, the longer my white ice was frozen. And the longer it takes to melt. The concept of temperature difference is involved here. We think that there is as much heat as minus 10 degrees Celsius to 0 degrees Celsius as there is 0 to 10 degrees Celsius, but this is not true. So, is it more of the former or more of the latter? My experiments tell me that of course it's the former.

Water is fluid and has fluidity. Water in the bowl will continue to erode the surface of the ice, making the surface of the ice porous. The surface of the ice, which has reached yield strength, is rapidly disintegrated by water. The water then repeats this process, and the ice gradually becomes surrounded by water. After being surrounded by water, the ice naturally cannot escape the fate of melting.

In summary, I think that water accelerates the melting of ice.

Margarita kept shaking her head and said, "No." This is caused by the environment, not by the water. If you put it in Iceland, do you think water has an effect on the melting of ice? It doesn't affect at all, and even the water turns into ice. So, when thinking, don't forget the premise.

Water has a dual role of acceleration and mitigation, the most important of which is to look at the environment. In other environments, water may have no effect on the melting of ice.

Mizukawa said happily: Everyone's views are very novel, and they also have their own truths. I can't say anything different from you, so I won't say it. Still, today's discussion was a success. I hope it will be the same next time as this time. Well, everyone must be tired after torturous thinking surfing. Now, you can find something else to keep busy.
